Evans family of Prince William, Va.

Jesse Henderson

Dozier,Here's what I have on a Jesse Henderson family from the 1860 PWC Census. There was not a connection indicated, however Wansford Evans household was #837/815 - Occoquan, Prince William County, Virginia, head of household, which is the ajoining # to Ellen's. It is indicated that Wansford Evans left "his property" to his servants. You should be able to track this transaction via deeds.Please note the sources at the end of the report. Good luck,Patricia WinkResearch Volunteerwww.pwcgs.org
